yeah and the rest of the sentence is ...

"This is all I do," he said. Sherman plans to use the $25,000 prize money for living expenses.

let me know if any of you guys can sit down at a game of scrabble and win $25 grand... uh huh.. thought so

reallly i don't see how you can lighten your depressions when you read the dictionary the whole day. i think what he needs is:

[Greebe]

Previously won in '97... ok 1997 he won and lets assume that was again $25k now we know that he hadn't worked in ten years so that puts his earning @ $50k total in the last 10 (no mention of 2nd or 3rd place winnings). So earning a grand total of $5k per year seriously places him in the poverty bracket. Wonder if this waste of life draws welfare too?


If so, IMHO the state should claim his prize money in order for him to pay back into the system he's draining/from those whom truely need & deserve it.

That's why I retracted my statement, cause most reporters show us what they want us to see.

Interesting the fact that one can win by using the pronunciation of a foreign word as a regular word.

I think next time I'll go to the championship too and use the following words:
a
bi
ci
di
e
effe
gi
h
i
elle
emme
enne
o
pi
q

etc...

(that are, italian pronunciation of the alphabet letters).

Idiotic...

yeh .. unless your dyslexic.....

[az]

OK, that'd obviously take a bit of the fun out of it - but you could use it to practise - or play with other dyslexic people (is there a noun for it? Dyslectics perhaps?) and laugh about how the others spell wrong in another way than you do

Well, if you're going to have a table full of dyslexics, you should also get them very drunk -- it could be the highest scoring Scrabble game in history.
